Created by the same artists and craftspeople who work on our movies, Arwen is the fourth character in Weta's range of miniature figures from The Lord of the Rings and is sculpted by Weta Workshop sculptor Steven Saunders.

Pre-orders open now. Shipping from the US, UK and New Zealand Q4 2014.

Special pre-order introductory price of US$599. This will rise to US$649 once the statue is in stock later this year.
As with all direct orders from Weta, it includes 60 Weta Dollars, which can be put towards other purchases from them.

The Balrog was sculpted by Weta Workshop Designer Jamie Beswarick, one of the original designers on The Lord of the Rings 15 years ago who was involved with designing many of the trilogy's creatures, including Gollum.
